Second-rate story of something's been done before

Rating: 2/10 (30 May 2019)

I came upon this when listening to Jablonsky's soundtrack music, having completely forgotten this even existed.
As my review is titled, it is a second-rate production of a basic story that has been done better-much better-before. A male & female paring who discover that their utopia-like existence of dumbed-down inhabitants isn't what they've been fed and brought up to believe. Think Logan's Run but with a dumbed-down storyline, over simplified motivation from the main character. Paired with Michael Bay's signature frantic direction, it becomes almost unwatchable. You spend almost the entire movie trying desperately to follow the action as the camera pans around the scene and dashes after the main characters (played with "mail-it-in" lifelessness by Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson) seemingly run, and run, and run away throughout the film.
Unless you are a big fan of these actors, or even Sean Bean (as the villain) and Djimon Hounsou (as the conflicted not-so-menacing mercenary)-and even then there is very little material for these actors to work with-I would definitely skip it.
